RE: [Thinkpad] Thinkpad 600E crashed with 00174 error

Hard drive maybe the partition
Try booting from a floppy and fdisk/mbr

    Subject: [Thinkpad] Thinkpad 600E crashed with 00174 error
      Hello,
    
    I have a thinkpad 600E which has crashed completely.
    - When I turn it on, it gives me an error code of 174,
    then goes into the hardware diagnostic mode where i
    can select to test or restart.
    - If I restart, it gives me 174 error code and points
    to an IBM Manual (funny).
    - If I select to test all hardware, everything tests
    OK but then gives me the same error code when restart.
    
    
    Can somebody please help me.
    
    - The last thing I was using the PC before it crashed
    was running the Mcafee virus scan because it seemed
    that the laptop had the MSBLAST.EXE virus. The next
    thing I know, I got a blue screen indicating a memory
    dump.
    - Is this a hardware or a software problem? What is
    000174. Internet sites have it as configuration error.
    - Is my hard drive gone? How do I check that. The test
    said it was ok.
    
    What are some of the steps I can take to determine
